This canon scanner is top shelf. When you load the software Canon Solutions Icon will appear on your desktop. You then have 5 choices as how you want to scan. To answer your question, Yes you can scan as a Word doc. Use the center option "Copy" and send to either printer or to your documents. Hope this is helpful.

Not that I know of. I figured out the double sided part which was great, I had a book that I needed to pdf scan. Scanning 1 doc, then saving 50 separate pdfs, boy, that would take a while... wish I had an answer.

You can append pdf, but you have to switch software. I scan docs with the ScanSnap S1500 manager (from button in tray) then use Paperport 14 for manipulating and filing - if necessary. It would be preferable if it had a twain driver so I could do everything from within Paperport. But relatively speaking, this is a minor incovenience - for me. I can see it could be a bit of a headache for others.

No. This wand provides scanned documents in either a jpg or pdf document type. If you scan the text to a pdf document you can use a program like Nuance PDF Advanced to OCR the text.

All you would need to do is download the application you want and your good to go. I see there is a one called Documents to go that is compatible it has Word, Powerpoint, and Exel.

The default seems to be to scan multiple pages as one document but you can change that in the advanced settings. So the answer is that you can scan either way.

Not sure, my scanner has the software to create scanned docs into PDF format. I use this software to convert MS Office files to PDF.

No you can scan one page at a time. There is a free window 8 app that will allow you to combine multiple pdfs into a single file.

You can scan documents as .pdf or Word and store the documents in container fields or references (file paths) to them.

Yes, it comes with an application that is very versatile. You can scan several pages into a single document, reorder the pages, delete some of them and insert pages from other PDF documents.

You scan 1 document at a time as a PDF file but in the editing you can combine multiple pages into one file. You can even arranged the order incase your page 1 becomes the page 5.

A PC may not be able to open a "Pages" document. You can, however, send the file as an Office document or PDF file which is very easy to do if you're using Apple's Pages word processor. When you click share, just choose to share it as a Word or PDF document and you're good to go!

Sort of. There's no multiple page feed feature for scanning. But you can click a button in the scanning software to add another page to the document/file. It's a hassle. And frankly, this printer has VERY expensive ink cartridges that cannot be refilled, and that do not last long. Skip this one for printing and scanning if you expect to use it for more than the occasional small document.

Yes, I have scanned 20-25 pages of different sizes into a single PDF. Need to be carefull with placement of pages in feeder to avoid jams.

Yes. After scaning of the first page the program asks do you want to scan the second page, then you save all work into one file.

I place multiple documents in the upper level tray and then hit scan. It should save them as a collective file within your computer.

You can scan individual pages and collate into (1) PDF file. Insofar as moving on surface you're probably thinking of a hand held scanner that you move over document.
